Abstract
A method for wireless communication, applied to a terminal device in communication with a first network and a second network, is disclosed. The method includes reducing, by the terminal device when an uplink duty cycle of the second network is greater than a maximum uplink duty cycle of the second network, a power class of a total transmit power of the first network and the second network. The uplink duty cycle of the second network is a proportion of time domain resources that can be used for uplink transmission in a time unit.
